The 2018 summer and thunder thread

[deckster]

Must be nearly time for the Other Thread to be opened for the season...

[gazapc]

I see the storm names for 2018-19 have been issued.

Although unlikely, if we reach S I will enjoy all the news readers stumbling over the pronunciation of the name.

It's absolutely beautiful in London today. I've just had lunch outdoors.

Storm Deirdre is potentially going to lead to a lot of Corrie memes.

Reminds me of this classic

Remnants of Hurricane Helene visit tonight. Western and Northern areas taking the brunt.

Wednesday sees a classic Atlantic storm deepening along the jet stream. Almost certainly will be named Ali. Potential for severe disruption in Scotland due to wind.

Currently on holiday on Isle of Skye. So grim up here I wish I didn't bother.

Looks like it'll only get worse

[colin_p]

Still stinkinng hot here in the home counties.

[Bill]

Yep, same here. Just got in from a hike with the scouts and was quite happy in a t-shirt. Lovely and clear too so we could see Mars.

It's a touch too far out at the moment for any kind of accuracy. The good news is that I can't see any hiccups in the works at this point. I'll try and remember to keep looking.

Thank you sir. I did read that any type of accuracy further than 3-5 days was a bit of a long shot anyway.
